The antiderivative should be $\atan(x)^2$ , however:

axiom

integrate(2*atan(x)/(1+x^2),x)

$\label{eq1}{\arctan \left({x}\right)}^2$

(1)

Type: Union(Expression(Integer),...)

axiom

D(%,x)

$\label{eq2}{2 \ {\arctan \left({x}\right)}}\over{{x^2}+ 1}$

(2)

Type: Expression(Integer)

axiom

D(atan(x)^2,x)

$\label{eq3}{2 \ {\arctan \left({x}\right)}}\over{{x^2}+ 1}$

(3)

Type: Expression(Integer)

Maybe this is related to bug #293, i.e., Axiom choosing the wrong branch of $\atan$ , or #141?

Yes, it is related to #293 --kratt6, Tue, 29 Aug 2006 04:55:37 -0500 reply

Look at

axiom

f x == 2*atan(x)+atan(2*x/(x^2-1))

Type: Void

Differentiating, we see that is constant

axiom

D(f x, x)

axiom

Compiling function f with type Variable(x) -> Expression(Integer)

$\label{eq4}0$

(4)

Type: Expression(Integer)

However, is not continuous at 1, and indeed,

axiom

numeric f(%pi)

axiom

Compiling function f with type Pi -> Expression(Integer)

$\label{eq5}3.1415926535897932385$

(5)

Type: Float

Drawing the function makes the situation quite clear...

This was done in rev 418 of wh-sandbox, not FriCAS...

Yes, but the link is to Fricas not the wh-sandbox.
